Description

Wortwiesel is a speed word-building game that's all about thinking fast and strategically. Designed for 2 to 6 players, this 30-minute game is easy to learn, but don't let that fool you - it's packed with challenges and excitement. Each player starts with a set of cards, each featuring two letters, and the goal is to build words as quickly as possible. The twist is that cards can be placed next to each other or overlapping, allowing you to cover and replace letters to create new words. This clever mechanic creates a puzzle effect that's both fun and frustrating, as you try to outmaneuver your opponents. As you play, a sand timer adds an extra layer of tension to the game. But unlike other games, the timer doesn't set a time limit - instead, it triggers the next card draw, giving you the option to take your time or rush to finish your word. With four tile cards and a wild card tile to help you out, you'll need to think strategically to maximize your score. After three rounds, the player with the highest score wins, taking into account both the length of their words and any unused cards or tiles. With its unique blend of word-building and tactical timing, Wortwiesel is a game that's sure to keep you on your toes and coming back for more.
